Re: [PATCH] orangefs: Axe some dead code

[Mike Marshall]

This seems like a good and proper patch to me, and simple too.
But like all changes, it needs tested. While I was testing it, I
discovered a regression in the associated userspace code. I
"bisected" (we use SVN for the userspace part of Orangefs)
down to the commit that caused the regression, and some
of the userspace folks are going to fix it.

I don't think I should ask Linus to pull this patch until I can
test it. Since we're about to go into rc7, it might not go in
until the next go around...
